Heart full of love, Head full of lice

First Week Campers Group Shot

Abigail coined that phrase to describe her first week of Children's Camp.   In that one phrase, she captured the realities of Gypsy Children's Camp from the beginning.   "Hearts full of love" loving even when there is "Head full of lice."   You can get rid of the lice but the love lasts a life time.

Since the last post, transition day happened.   The 51 Apalina children return home on the bus that brings the 45 children from Gornesti, Glodeni, and Csavas to camp.   Zozo and Alina brought the second group.  The pictures are mixture of the Apalina children's last day and the new groups first days.

The weather has changed some with rain for new campers.  But, they are having a great time.   Bonnie's science experiments have really captured their attention.  Hopefully the next post will give you a picture of them.
